Cornish Rivera Express.

Cornish Rivera Express.
One of a number of slides dated 1985, It's not stood the test of time well but it shows ex GWR Hall and a Manor both sadly unidentifiable however the coaches and engine carry Cornish Rivera Express boards so I assume from the date and the number of people hanging out of the windows that this was a return trip of a special of some kind.
The train is running down the bank into Bridgwater Station from Somerset Bridge and passing the Colley lane sidings in the forground.

I am now informed that the likely combination is 7827 Lydham Manor and 4930 Hagley Hall

A beautiful view. Great perspective, lines and atmosphere! I wish I could see some steam or smell it!

Thank you Rainer, they were coasting down the bank and slowing for the station, not a good vantage point for smoke and steam

Sorry Christiane I missed this bit,
I need to acquire a new Scanner with a slide attachment, that will then convert my slides into photographs.

O.K. Roger. Yes, we have something like that here, but I really thought that you had found an OTHER way to do the job (:o)). Tell you why.
In the past, I was using this kind of machine to scan old photographs too, but I found a quickest way to do it. I just photography the old photographs and get them on my camera. No need to connect and use the special machine. Maybe one day I will find something to scan the slides too (:o)).
Have a nice week end, my dear friend.
